Lotus C-01 motorcycle unveiled by Kodewa

Features a 1.2-liter V-twin engine

Kodewa Performance Motorcycles has officially unveiled their Lotus-branded C-01.
Developed over the course of two years, the C-01 has a stylish exterior and a high-tech frame that is constructed from carbon fiber, titanium and "aerospace quality steel." The bike will also be offered with an assortment of liveries and a customization service that is "limited only by the imagination of the client."
Power is provided by a 1.2-liter V-twin engine that produces approximately 200 HP (147 kW). It is connected to a six-gear "jaw-type shift transmission" which should ensure the bike is an absolute rocket.
Despite wearing the Lotus name, the C-01 wasn't "designed, engineered or produced" by the automaker. Instead, Kodewa licensed the name to add a little prestige to their latest model.
According to Kodewa boss Dr Colin Kolles, "We set out to create a bike that isn’t just great to ride but also represents a piece of art in motion. Over the years I have seen my fair share of style over substance, what this bike brings to the market is a unique combination of both - state of the art technology with a truly jaw-dropping aesthetic.”













Production will be limited to 100 units but there's no word on pricing.
